Default Jaguar Stype05

Hellow to all. I'm a newbie in the forum. I find lots of interesting topics here about jags. I own a 2005 Jag S type V6. Bought it last year and since then I had no issues with the engine to this day. There are a few front suspension parts that worn out due to normal wear. I did recently replaced the upper control arm and tie rods on both sides due to clunks. I'm glad that the tightness of the front suspension has been restored and it feels like I'm driving a new car. Thanks to a friend who helped out in replacing the components. Will share the images as soon as I figured how to upload photos here.

Clunks are a sure sign something in the suspension needs attention. It's always good to have helpful friends too!
